After looking through several related topics and web articles it seems many of them was written before IOS6 and the integration to Facebook.
What I'm looking to do it add a LIKE button within my application that the user can press which will then like our facebook page.
What is the best way to do this?
Facebook IOS SDK?
Facebook OpenGraph?
Is there any good up-to-date tutorials out there?
I've used the FacebookLikeView project with (initial) success. Unfortunately, my app was blocked, apparently due to triggering Facebook's spam detection during development and testing of the app (liking/unliking my own page a number of times). I haven't found a way around that problem, and it is something that others have seen too.
I personally think the Facebook SDK would be the best place to start. iOS6 implements a lot of functionality with Facebook, and frankly, after I was done reading through some of it, it did a lot that I had no idea it even could.
This tutorial helped a lot:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/tutorials/ios-sdk-tutorial/
But, perhaps this is more what you are looking for (?):

Hope this helps!

What is the best way to go about adding a monthly subscription to the Apple Newsstand?
I am currently working with a site which deals with PDF subscriptions through Ubercart and we are now looking to support iPads through the Apple Newsstand. We would like pay as you go and full yearly subscriptions which would allow the user to download any previous issues for free.
How much work would this be? Do you need to make a bespoke app to do this or is there a straight forward way to do it?
The PDF would ideally show just as it is, we don't currently have any need to integrate rich media into it such as some of the more popular subscriptions out there currently do.
This is the best tutorial for the News Stand app
Here is the Link :

This is the video from the apple developer site explaining all about how the newsstand works. LINK

I want to add Analytics tool in my iPhone application. I have found Google Analytics, Asking Point and Flurry.
Now which is the best analytics tool form them and why ? or is there any other tool available ?
I use flurry, they have a great platform and very easy to integrate. Flurry also seems more focused on mobile. Most people use flurry, but I think some are starting to switch to google analytics, although i have' t personally used them, however their focus isn't just mobile, but they are great at dealing with web pages.
Flurry can let you track any event. A downside would be the reporting time, sometimes it can be hours, and as far as downloads it seems to update everyday.
I would use both for a few weeks and see which one you like better. It will probably come down to your preference.

I have a question, I was wondering if it is professional to use jQuery mobile for a iPhone app? I mean, i just needed to create photo galleries and i used jQuery mobile, and then created a webview for it.
Is it OK to create an iPhone app this way? Or is it not professional? Thanks!
Everyone will have an opinion about whether it is professional or not... it all depends on how you deliver your final product.
If your app looks polished, performs well and adheres to the HIG guidelines, then yes, it could be acceptable.
If you however throw something together which looks bad, performs poorly and doesn't function, then don't bother. You'd likely not make it past the approval process.
Take a look at: http://www.jqmgallery.com/. Lots of people have used jQuery Mobile to produce really slick looking apps.
Ask the basic questions -
Can I maintain it easily
Can someone else maintain it easily
Does it work with my SCM
Does it meet the requirements - fast enough, no crashing, etc.
It's professional, as long as you use best practices, and write decent scripts.

Kind of a noob question, but is there a good way to search for custom controls/objects/frameworks? I was able to stumble upon the Three20 framework and some other things like custom progress bar views and other custom views...but I just kinda 'happened' upon them. Is there any standard place where people post their stuff besides doing a github-wide search?
For UI elements, check out Cocoa Controls. I unfortunately don't know of any other centralized repositories for categories etc. All the useful stuff I've stumbled across came from github, stackoverflow, and/or repeated google searches.
I would recommend staying away from Three20, though. Having used it on some large projects in the past, the framework tended get in the way more than it helped IMHO. Their drawing libraries have some nice conveniences, but it's a lot of bloat to add to your project if you just want a single UI element that the framework provides.
One good site that has aggregated a lot of these is http://cocoacontrols.com/

This is my first post here and I wanted to get some input from people doing iPhone development. Other than the Apple DevCenter, where are there good sites to learn iPhone developement?
I know Apple has a tough NDA but there has to be people talking about writing applications for the iPhone.
Pretty impressed with http://www.appsamuck.com/
A new iPhone app is written everyday, and listed on the site with source code and screen shots.
This site covers some of the basics with little regard for the NDA. Start at the bottom and work up.
this is probably a good place to start
http://developer.apple.com/iphone/
Craig Hockenberry (developer of Twitterrific) blogs about iPhone development issues at furbo.org
My friend suggested me this site edumobile which provides you with detailed information on iPhone development it is significantly a useful resource hope this will help you.
Apple now has developer forums, accessible to registered developers: https://devforums.apple.com
In http://www.raywenderlich.com/tutorials you will find a lots of good tutorials, and you will be up to date with new iOS features as soon as Apple release then.
